Dreaming in the Doldrums is a solo exhibition about personal fantasy and escape amidst everyday
experience. It is a reimagining of everyday life into something more playful, dramatic, and
true. In many of these paintings, the figure struggles to make sense of the outside world and its
inconsistencies, with painterly abstractions illustrating an estranged, complicated, and sometimes
humorous relationship with the environment. The paintings entitled Customer Service reflect
the beauty of our dreams and aspirations, and the relentless hope and optimism that we all
hold amidst setbacks and frustrations.

As one perceives the world around them, they do so through the filter of their experiences. The work of these artists conveys their perceptions while challenging the experiences of the viewer. In this show escaping daydreams, frustrated emotions and inanimate objects create impersonations of reality.
